Tennis super star Serena Williams is already in mommy mood, and has written a sweet letter to her unborn child.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy Dearest Baby, You gave me the strength I didn\u2019t know I had,\u201d Williams wrote in post Monday morning \u2014 her fianc\u00e9\u2019s birthday. \u201cYou taught me the true meaning of serenity and peace. I can\u2019t wait to meet you.\u201d<\/p>\n
The accompanying photo is a sweet beach selfie in which the tennis player\u2019s bump is just barely visible.<\/p>\n
\u201cI can\u2019t wait for you to join the players box next year,\u201d Williams continued. \u201cBut most importantly, I am so happy to share being number one in the world with you\u2026 once again today. On @alexisohanian bday. From the world\u2019s oldest number one to the world\u2019s youngest number one. -Your Mommy.\u201d<\/p>\n
At 35, Serena Williams is the \u201coldest number one\u201d in women\u2019s singles tennis. Williams has held the spot seven different times, the sixth time being when she scored 186 weeks in the coveted spot, tying competitor Steffi Graf for most consecutive weeks there.<\/p>\n
At 35, Williams is the eldest women tennis player to achieve that ranking. And it looks like the Michigan native is ready to welcome another champion to the family. When the baby is born in the fall, they\u2019ll be the \u201cyoungest number one,\u201d which is goddamn adorable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
